Product Description
Now Foods Glucosamine Sulfate 750 mg, 60 Capsules, NOW FoodsNow Foods Glucosamine Sulfate 750 mg 60 Capsules Glucosamine Sulfate (Superior Joint Support) by NOW Foods
Now Foods Glucosamine Sulfate Superior Joint Support
NOW Foods Glucosamine Sulfate is an amino sugar derived from the chitin of shellfish. NOW Foods Glucosamine Sulfate is utilized by the body to support healthy joint structures.
Joint Health Supports Healthy Joint Function Supports Cartilage Formation
What is glucosamine? Glucosamine is derived from glucose and glutamine (an amino acid). It is used to produce substances in the body that attract and bind water into tissues, making them more resilient. It is especially important to maintain properly functioning joint structures.
How is glucosamine manufactured? Glucosamine is produced by removing the proteins and minerals from the shells of shrimp and crab. This is done primarily in China, with some coming from other Asian countries, including Thailand and Malaysia. NOW has developed the Official AOAC Method for testing glucosamine and has used this method for the past five years.
What is the source of NOW's Chondroitin? NOW's Chondroitin is derived from bovine tissue from cattle. As with all of our raw materials, we screen Chondroitin very carefully for the presence of any undesirable microbes. NOW’s state-of-the-art analytical lab has developed a method of testing chondroitin, which is currently being verified by independent labs around the world and is expected to become an Official Method used to test all products containing chondroitin sulfate.
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a major component of our cartilage that helps cushion our joints. It is believed to provide structure, hold water and nutrients, and promote elasticity in cartilage. It also appears to inhibit the enzymes that can destroy cartilage tissue. These properties have made Chondroitin Sulfate a popular dietary supplement for people seeking to nourish their joint tissues. Chondroitin is marketed alone or in combination with other joint supplements, usually with Glucosamine (another compound believed key to cartilage formation and repair).1,2
A significant source of Chondroitin sulfate is animal cartilage. The major commercially available source is bovine (cow). Only bovine sources are used in NOW products because the clinical studies on effectiveness of chondroitin are based on bovine material. Other animal sources are also available from porcine (pork), chicken and shark. The finite source of raw materials, coupled with the recent interest in finding natural substances to aid in the maintenance of joint health, has created a significant demand that affects the availability of CS. NOW Foods has been facing the challenge of not only finding material that meets our strict specifications, but is also reasonably priced.
NOW has obtained supplies of Chondroitin sulfate from various sources. NOW's Quality Control Group analyses samples from these sources. Quality Control determines the percentage of Chondroitin sulfate present. Results obtained ranged from as little as 2.7% to greater than 90%, with everything in-between. NOW scientists use HPLC instrumentation to qualify raw materials, allowing for much tighter controls on the materials purchased. This enables NOW to ensure that NOW’s CS products are of the highest quality.
